This is a War...

[dutch508]

Not the OP because that is just a cut and paste, but here we see a DUmpmonkey try to take a stand.

3. Though I oppose civil capital punishment, this is a war

and ISIS openly lied during the negotiations. ISIS brought this on themselves.

I fully support bombing the s**t out of ISIS fighters regardless of national origin, gender, or age.

I should add that I oppose allowing westerners who joined ISIS back into their home countries. They could be lying.

Here are pictures of the pilot before his death.

Be careful. You almost called out the muslims.

11. They seem to be trying to come up with more and more

brutal ways to murder their victims, since beheading can be relatively quick if it is not done clumsily or with the wrong sort of instrument. That makes me think that those in power in that group are deriving real pleasure from the agony of their victims. This is not just about winning, but about reveling in maximizing the suffering of someone helpless.

Really? Maybe they are just evil ****ing bastards.

19. This is horrendous- As the English did to heretics, and the European witch trials, and the Spanish....etc, etc, etc.. ISIS is no different then the barbaric acts of distant times. ISIS is distant times. They may use modern guns and bombs, but their thought processes are from distant history.

 

It wouldn't be DU without blaming the west first.

31. And the U.S. had a field day with its enslaved and freed Africans/African Americans. Plenty of photos of the result (whipping, hanging, burning. maiming) since the perpetrators were incredible exhibitionists, bringing their families along to enjoy the show.

18. wow

And are we not concerned that Ben Carson says the Founding Fathers and ISIS are similar in their fight.

“A bunch of rag-tag militiamen defeated the most powerful and professional military force on the planet. Why? Because they believed in what they were doing. They were willing to die for what they believed in,” Carson told a luncheon audience of national committee members. “Fast forward to today. What do we have? You’ve got ISIS. They’ve got the wrong philosophy, but they’re willing to die for it while we are busily giving away every belief and every value for the sake of political correctness. We have to change that.”

He may be saying that ISIS is wrong, but to use ISIS and the founding fathers in the same sentence, with the same breath, to me equates Hitler's Nazi movement with Israel.

And the KKK was the enforcement arm of the Democratic Party.

Taking stoopid, to whole new level.

...and yet, you would help them build a mosque in your backyard, all the while, equating these primitives to modern day Christians.

No,.... really?  Wackjob leftist pussies have to actually live without their iPad and Xbox while suffering from Starbucks withdrawal and a lack of portapotties?

Awwwwwwww....

One of these days ISIS is going to go too far and really upset the libs.

[HawkHogan]

Everytime the Dummies attempt to criticize Islam, they must first criticize the West in order to maintain credibility.

Bull's-eye.

Bull's-eye.

They have such warped minds. When I saw the news about ISIS burning this pilot, I felt upset for this man and his family. When Dummies saw the news, they thought about the time Christians did it 500 years ago.

And damn it, it wasn't only "Christians" doing such things 500 years ago.

What the Hell do the primitives think was happening in Africa, in China, in South America, 500 years ago?

That these hellholes were havens of tolerance, love, and peace?

Geezuz.

Exactly. Last time I debated Radical Islam with a liberal, he just kept bringing up the Crusades. 

It's 2015.

Progresssives have a very near sighted and short term view of world history frank.  To them nothing bad happened in the world until July 4, 1776.  Then it all went to hell in a hand basket.

It's no different than their belief that the Islamo-Nazi's never hated us until George Bush took office.

To the Muslims its only the year 1436

This betrays the ethnocentrism of the primitives; they don't know, and don't care, what happened in parts of the world not theirs.  When Europeans were dong all these terrible things so long ago, other peoples in other places were doing the same thing, if not worse.

I seriously doubt any of that is even taught in schools these days. 

Primitives are indoctrinated in the belief of moral equivalence.  We're not allowed to dislike, criticize or show outrage towards anything Muslim Terrorists, Communist dictatorships psycho lunatics or murdering thugs do because of things that happened in our distant history.

Hence the reason they always find a way to say "oh yeah well look at what the U.S. did" in any discussion that comes up.

And you know as well as I do that the "ethnocentrism" of the primitives is a facade.

[franksolich]

No, no; unless I'm using the wrong term, I meant "ethnocentric" in the sense that the primitives know only their own culture, and especially not any cultures vastly different from their own.

Sort of like "provincialism," where, for example, people from New York City or Boston know only of those places, and not the vast areas and people stretching west of them.  Or nadin.

No you're using the right term...but I still believe it's a facde given how they so roundly and completely reject the culture of America and what it means to be an American.

The American culture is alien and intolerable to primitives.

I saw a headline somewhere that stated the pilot's execution was chosen among Twitter suggestions. Like a name the mascot contest or something.

I just Nadined that and found this article:

"Terra, terra, terra"!

That, DUmmtard, is what your DUmp mates would sneeringly say whenever the subject of islamokazie threats or terror alerts came up during President Bush's tenure.  That's how you ****wits would try to minimize and objectify the rest of the civilized world that wanted something done to prevent what is happening today.

Now you think it's a "war"?  Welcome to where your betters were over a decade ago, DUmbass.
